To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the refrigerator or freezer and not
left exposed or dangling.
The refrigerator or freezer should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which
has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the refrigerator or freezer. This provides the
best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard
from overheating. Never unplug the refrigerator or freezer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip
the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power
cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or
abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the refrigerator or freezer, be
careful not to damage the power cord.
Extension Cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do
not use an extension cord with this refrigerator or freezer. However, if you must use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type refrigerator or
freezer extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the
cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.
Reversing the Door Swing
If you find the direction of opening the door of the refrigerator or freezer inconvenient, you can
change it. Holes on the opposite side have already been prepared at the factory. To reverse your

4.
Remove the screws from the bottom hinge.
5.
Remove the decorative caps from the opposite side and plug the holes from the original side
with the decorative caps.
NOTE:
If the hinge pin attached to the bottom hinge cannot be removed and reattached in the left
hinge hole, use the hinge provided in the plastic bag where this
